#21 of Poetry

Contrast of love and rejection, and how the heart bears through and suffers from both.

_The Two Hearts_

1. The Heart

The heart is broken   
It lies in pieces   
With words unspoken   
Its love never ceases

Love's a hateful thing   
It spites and scorns   
To love we cling   
Without which we're never born

Blood which hate adores   
Blood that comes from the heart   
Liquid love from the body pours   
Love until death, as a start.

2. The Broken Heart

Love 'til death, for a start.   
Liquid love from the body pours:   
Blood that comes from the heart   
Blood which hate adores   
Without which we are never born.

To love we cling   
Which spites and scorns   
Love is a hateful thing.

With love never ceasing   
With words never spoken   
It lies in pieces:   
This heart is broken.
